Most notable were the rapid and unregulated entry of the multinational and transnational tobacco companies (TTCs) and the privatisation of previously state owned tobacco industries. The impact of investment liberalisation and privatisation of state owned tobacco companies on patterns of tobacco use and tobacco control has not previously been studied, timely, accurate data on smoking patterns in the former Soviet Union are scarce and there has been no formal research on TTC activities there. This thesis capitalises on the unique social experiment provided by the Soviet Union’s transformation to address these research gaps through a combination of data and methodologies: analysis of routine and ad hoc data on investments and consumption; survey data on patterns and determinants of smoking behaviour in the region; and internal tobacco industry documents. The importance of this work is underlined by the fact that tobacco industry privatisation continues to be promoted by international actors who have seemingly given no consideration to its potential impacts, and that tobacco control policies are most effective when informed by accurate data on patterns and determinants of smoking and by information on industry tactics and actions. The thesis finds that between 1992 and 2000 the TTCs made significant investments in ten countries of the region. These investments have exponentially increased cigarette production rates and fuelled cigarette consumption without favourably influencing trade figures. Smoking prevalence rates in men remain amongst the highest in the world, with rates over 60% recorded in three of the eight countries surveyed. Smoking rates in women are far lower, but their pattern appears to reflect TTC activity. Tobacco industry documents outline the major negative influence TTCs have had on tobacco control. The thesis concludes that investment liberalisation and tobacco industry privatisation pose major threats to public health and makes recommendations for action. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT........................................................................................................................................................... 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS....................................................................................................................................... 3 LIST OF TABLES ................................................................................................................................................. 8 LIST OF FIGURES................................................................................................................................................ 9 LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS AND DEFINITIONS...........................................................................................10 Abbreviations ................................................................................................................................................... 10 Definitions ........................................................................................................................................................ 12 STATEMENT...................................................................................................................................................... 13 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ................................................................................................................................. 14 CHAPTER 1 Introduction, background, aims and objectives............................................................................ 16 SECTION A INTRODUCTION .............................................................................................................. 16 THESIS OUTLINE .......................................................................................................................................... 19 SECTION B BACKGROUND ................................................................................................................ 20 PART 1: THE FORMER SOVIET UNION..................................................................................................... 20 1.1 The history of the Soviet Union............................................................................................................. 20 1.2 The collapse of the Soviet Union........................................................................................................... 20 1.3 The fifteen Newly Independent States (NIS)......................................................................................... 21 1.4 Economic transition ............................................................................................................................... 23 1.4.1 The scale and speed of reform and privatisation .............................................................................. 25 1.4.2 Outcomes........................................................................................................................................... 26 1.4.3 A retrospective analysis – gathering the evidence on privatisation.................................................. 28 1.4.4 Further evidence from CEE/FSU...................................................................................................... 29 1.4.5 Success or failure?

  • British American Tobacco's Submission to the WHO's
    British American Tobacco’s submission to the WHO’s Framework Convention on Tobacco Control This is the submission of the British American Tobacco group of companies commenting on the WHO’s Framework Convention on Tobacco Control. We are the world’s most international tobacco group with an active presence in 180 countries. Our companies sell some of the world’s best known brands including Dunhill, Kent, State Express 555, Lucky Strike, Benson & Hedges, Rothmans and Pall Mall. Executive summary • The WHO’s proposed ‘Framework Convention on Tobacco Control’ is fundamentally flawed and will not achieve its objectives. • The tobacco industry, along with other industries involved in the manufacture and distribution of legal but risky products, is the subject of considerable public attention. It is important that the debate about tobacco remains open, objective, constructive and free from opportunistic criticism if we are effectively to address the real issues associated with tobacco. • British American Tobacco is responsible tobacco. We seek to operate in partnership with governments, who are significant stakeholders in our business, and other interested parties, based on our open acknowledgement that we make a risky product and therefore support sensible regulation. • British American Tobacco shares the World Health Organisation’s desire to reduce the health impact of tobacco use. This paper outlines British American Tobacco’s proposal for the sensible regulation of tobacco. • Our proposal will relieve the WHO of the cost and bureaucracy involved in its wish to become a single global tobacco regulator, leaving it free to do what it should be doing – policy orientation. Some facts about tobacco • Today over one billion adults, about one third of the world’s adult population, choose to smoke.

  • Validity of Smokers' Information About Present and Past Cigarette Brands Implications for Studies of the Effects of Falling Tar Yields of Cigarettes on Health
    Thorax 1986;41:203-207 Thorax: first published as 10.1136/thx.41.3.203 on 1 March 1986. Downloaded from Validity of smokers' information about present and past cigarette brands implications for studies of the effects of falling tar yields of cigarettes on health HEDLEY PEACH, D SHAH, RW MORRIS From the Department ofCommunity Medicine, United Medical and Dental Schools ofGuy's and St Thomas's Hospitals, London ABSTRACT Four hundred and twenty nine current smokers and ex-smokers who had provided details 12 years previously completed a self administered questionnaire about their present and past smoking habits, and two weeks later current smokers supplied an empty cigarette packet. The tar group and brand name of the current cigarette given on the questionnaire were compared with details on the packet, and the brand alleged to have been smoked 12 years ago was compared with that actually recorded at that time. Only 55% of "low middle" tar cigarettes as indicated by returned packets had been correctly identified in the questionnaire. The brand name was the same in the questionnaire and on the packet in 74% of cases. The recalled brand was confirmed by past records in only 49% of cases. It is concluded that current smokers should be asked to return an empty packet or packets of the cigarette brand or brands usually smoked with a self administered questionnaire and that follow up studies of populations for which brands of cigarette smoked were copyright. previously recorded might be more valid.than studies relying on recall. Several studies have attempted to establish whether ing brands on health may have to collect information over a there is any benefit to cigarette smokers in changing on brands on the basis of recall long period http://thorax.bmj.com/ from a higher to a lower tar brand.
